Al Hrabosky

okay no we got Tampa Bay Lightning that's hockey yeah we know that right no but I you know I for some reason I thought Tampa had won one a couple years ago but no they have not so this is exciting Milwaukee hasn't been to the series since they lost to the Cardinals back in 1982 I was only out of high school for four

months you remember him Yes, of course, the Mad Hungarian.

That was the

Cardinals.

Home plate umpire Art Williams wants to talk things over with crew chief Doug Harvey.

This crew had the, uh, slight argument on Alan Hrabosky's pitching in Pittsburgh.

They didn't call any watch on him, but the next night when Rucker was pitching, he was called for not pitching within the allotted 20 seconds of time, and a ball was called.

Rucker's comments to-

Kirkpatrick holding against him, and the pitch to Reggie up high, ball one.

You get the feeling the way this game is going that the bullpen is going to be active before very long.

Hrabosky and Jesse will probably be dueling.

The one-oh pitch, foul down the left-field line into the Pirates' bullpen.

Thank you, Curt, and, uh, to lead off for the Mets in the top of the seventh inning, it'll be Clendenon, their number four batter, to be followed by Svoboda and Charles.

And one of the men, Curt, to remember, to be remembered in that '66 World Series, the great relief job by Hrabosky.

Hrabosky pitched, uh, better than six innings of relief for McNally in that first game and struck out 11.

1-0 from Cuellar.

The screwball for one ball and one strike.

First baseman, Roy White.

Whitey Herzog making a change, and now Hrabosky comes in.

[cheering] And this crowd will go bonkers.

[cheering] 'Cause Hrabosky, as you well know, he, he's got this thing built up where he psychs himself as he gets behind the mound, and with that beard and whatever, he, he's right out of central casting if you were looking for a villain for a tag team wrestling match.

And this crowd really reacts to it.

Roy White will be the batter.

Seven runs, 12 hits, and one error for Kansas City.

And the tiebreaker is on at second base, Chris Chambliss.

They go to Parker.

Now they got the Mad Russian or Hungarian, whatever they call him, Hrabosky loosening.

This will be the fourth walk for the Pirates, the second intentional to Stargell.

Well, every time they've done it, it's hurt them, and I hope it does again.

Parker swings off his foot foul.

Strike one.

Hrabosky, the left-hander loosening, is going to be joined by a right-hander out there.

Garman.

Cardinals have tied them up 4 to 4 in the first of a doubleheader at Montreal.

They got Hrabosky in again.

Oh.

This is when it's tough for the Cardinals to play baseball, let me tell you, or anybody.

That's the final.

Uh, Ted Simmons won it with his 17th homer in the 12th inning.

Winning pitcher, Alan Hrabosky, 13 and 3, the losing pitcher, Woody Fryman, 8 and 12.

You might have missed it earlier on Nellie's pregame show.
